Freedom from or freedom to

Jun 18, 2022

Freedom from or freedom to

Freedom means so many different things to so many people. 

Do we want to be free from…

Oppression

Robotic meaningless work

Responsibility

Exploitation

Or do we want freedom to…

Bring an idea to life

Wear what we want

Do whatever we want no matter the consequences?

All freedom lives in constraints and carries responsibilities, like it or not.

Perhaps rather than focus on our freedom we might consider the constraints we are happy to accept, or design, and build a life within that container?
